SO, did you guys with the KR2S or SS with the bigger engines, put thrust (
Left or Right) into you built, if so, how much, I would think normally, a
mount should have some slight down and Right thrust??? If so how much, and
how did you work it out?, IF NOT, does you bird perform OK.

My 0-200 is on a HAPI VW mount which I assume has no offset. I didn't
install any spacers to produce offset so I can only assume my engine is
mounted zero / zero horizontal and vertical. I have no fixed or
adjustable trim tab on the rudder for yaw and I fly in cruise with my
feet flat on the floor, actually up agents the firewall for comfort, and
my KR tracks straight. Maybe I built it so out of rig that it
compensates. As always, YRMV.........

P.S. The Tripacer had a noticeable down and to the right offset and flew
fine also. Why the difference, who knows. Interesting observation. My
Tripacer only got dirty (grass) on the left side of the fuselage when
flying off grass because of the airflow generated around the fuselage
from the prop.
